Chapter 21: The Girl and Her Past

"Iona?" SpongeBob raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, Iona." she replied. "I know your names. Jimmy, Timmy, SpongeBob, Danny, and Zim."

"You lie. YOU LIE!" Zim yelled.

"No, she doesn't." Danny snapped.

"Uh, how do you know our names?" Timmy asked.

"Please, we need to talk. All of you, but not here. Even the outside has eyes." Iona said. The others looked at each other and shrugged then, went off with Iona. We cut to them as they stopped in a part of the woods, which was blue (trees, fog, etc.) and also cold.

"I don't like it here." SpongeBob shivered.

"Foolish...sponge!" Zim said at him and laughed.

"Why are we here? And why we should trust you?" Danny asked to Iona.

"Because, I know all about you guys. And, I have some information you should know about." the ghost replied again.

"How about..." Danny was about to hit her until Jimmy stopped him.

"Danny, no! She's telling the truth." he snapped at Danny.

"But..."

"But nothing!"

Danny sighs. "Fine." he gets off of Iona.

"Now, please explain about your past."

"Thanks, Jimmy. You see, a very long time ago, this place was very beautiful. Everyone that lived here old and young was treated like a god/goddess." Iona explained a part.

"That sounds cool." Timmy said.

"Yes. However, there was one place that no one was ever allowed to. The castle of darkness."

"The castle of darkness?" Danny asked.

"Yes, the castle of darkness. No one was ever near or in there expect for the one person who ruled it..."

"Mr. Sin!" Jimmy finished.

"That is correct. Now, in the town, there were four jewels hidden in it. There was gold, emerald, blue, and ruby."

"We found three of the four," SpongeBob said. "When Danny, Timmy, and I brought out our jewels at the some time, Timmy turned into a huge monster demon. We got on him and he roared all the villains away."

"Yes. These jewels are the most powerful things in the universe. Back in the town, I was the princess there. I wanted to marry my love true love, but couldn't."

"Why was that?" asked Timmy.

"He went off. I last time I saw him, we were playing outside in the woods and saw Mr. Sin's castle. I pleaded not to go near it, but nope, he did! The next thing you know, he disappeared into the fog, never to be seen again."

"What does that have to do with us?" asked Jimmy.

"Yeah, get on with the point!" Zim yelled.

"Your ancestors, expect for Zim's, were born during that time. Even though they were from different worlds, they could link to each other by heart." Iona replied.

"I think I know where this is going." Timmy said.

"One day, Jimmy's ancestor built a machine that was very powerful. He used to and found Danny's, SpongeBob's, and Timmy's ancestor(s) too. Then, Jimmy used the machine one more time and brought the others. They discovered my hometown and..."

"And what?"

"Mr. Sin found out. Found out that they were from another worlds and the machine. Sin knew that he could use it to control my town and your worlds. Your ancestors went inside the castle and fought Mr. Sin. They also took the jewels he had. I was the only one who witnessed this. After that, I took the jewels and hid them where they weren't in Amity Park, Retroville, Dimmsdale and Bikini Bottom."

"Wow. Our ancestors were heroes?" Danny said.

"Actually, in-famous heroes. But the point is, you five have to stop Mr. Sin before he gets control of all the worlds and visited and live in."

"Even this one?" Jimmy questioned.

"Even this one."

"Wait, how do you know my name?" Zim asked.

"I overheard it when you guys were talking."

"Yeah, whatever."

"So, where can we find Mr. Sin's castle?" said SpongeBob.

"Follow me." Iona replied. The rest followed her to Sin's castle. Meanwhile in there, their friends were getting worried.

"How are we gonna even live!" Cosmo shouted.

"Yeah, that guy might wanna eat us!" Sheen added.

"Don't panic! We're gonna get outta here, or my name isn't Dib Membrane!" Dib said.

"I thought your name was big-headed kid." Gir stupidly. Tucker, Cosmo, and Patrick snickered. Dib slapped his head.

"So, how do you think we're gonna get outta here?" Gaz asked. The others shrugged in reply. "I knew it. When we die, I'm gonna kill you."

Outside, the six walked up to where the moat was and the drawbridge to get inside.

"So, now what?" asked Timmy.

"Leave it to me." Danny said. Danny flies to the drawbridge, but a ghost shield blocks him and falls down back with his friends. "Oh, crud!"

"Now that Danny can't get us inside, how will we now?" SpongeBob questioned.

"Use your powers." Iona replied.

"Yeah, use your powers. YOUR POWERS!" Zim hollered.

"You don't have any idea what they are." Jimmy said.

"Yeah I do!" Jimmy starred at him blankly for a moment. SpongeBob used his Waterbending that controlled the water from the moat and put it all down on land, which made a giant mud puddle. Danny used his Firebending and Jimmy used his Earthbending to ward off the monsters from the lake. They all made it across the moat finally.

"Now, how to get inside..." trailed off Timmy.

"That'll be my job." Iona replied. She closed her eyes and the drawbridge disappeared.

"Amazing..." Zim said to himself.

"Now, let's go in before anyone or anything notices us." the boys agreed. Danny turned back human and went in.

"Why didn't you do that before?" SpongeBob asked.

"What?" Danny said.

"Go back human and then go ghost on the inside. Maybe flip the drawbridge down."

"Because using powers is much cooler!" Timmy interrupted.

"Yeah, what he said." Danny agreed. SpongeBob rolled his eyes.

"Quick, come on." Iona said. The six sneaked around the castle, hoping no one will notice them (because there were guards everywhere). Finally, They got to the dungeon door. "My senses tell me they're in here."

Zim took out a blaster and used it on the door. It fell down after that. The others looked at him.

"What?" Zim asked. Ignoring what he said, they went in. Danny used his ghost blast as a flashlight. There were skeletons in the cages that scared the heck out of SpongeBob, so he stuck very close,

"SpongeBob, get off me." Timmy annoyed.

"Sorry. It's just this place scares me. I mean, what if we're too late? What if our friends were eaten?" asked the sponge.

"Don't worry. We'll find out friends in the nick of time. I promise."

"Hey, I found them!" Danny yelled. The other two came over and saw Sheen, Carl, Libby, Cindy, Cosmo, Wanda, Dib, Gaz, Gir, Sam, Tucker, Patrick, Sandy, Pelswick and Ginger trapped in the cages.

"Thank goodness you guys are alive!" Jimmy said.

"Nice to see you guys again." Cindy said.

"Who's she?" Tucker asked pointing to Iona.

"Tucker, this is Iona. She's gonna help us, or at least until we get you guys out." Danny explained. Iona looked at Cosmo and Wanda and gasped.

"What is it, Iona?" asked Timmy.

"No one is leaving now!" a voice boomed. Jimmy and the gang turned around and saw Mr. Sin who came from the shadows.

"I knew you shouldn't have blasted that door." SpongeBob said.

"Oh, be quiet!" Zim snapped. Suddenly, the cages with the kids disappeared.

"Hey, what did you do with our friends!" Danny demanded.

"Like I said, no one leaves! And if you want your friends back, you have to battle me!" Sin's voice boomed again. The six got ready to fight. "No, not all of you...you! Jimmy Neutron!" Mr. Sin pointed to Jimmy. Then, he grabbed him with one hand and they disappeared from the wall.

"Wow." Zim amazed.

"What do you will happen to Jimmy?" Timmy asked.

"I don't know, Timmy. I just don't know." Iona replied.

This doesn't look good. Only two more chapters 'til this is complete! Please, some flames but also write non-insults, too!
